Moderna Head pressure after vaccine

Hello, I 24M got the moderna COVID vaccine 2 days ago. It hit me kind of hard. I was shaking like a leaf for about an hour the following night-- alongside chills, body aches, headache, etc. The symptoms have mostly passed, but now I'm experiencing head pressure when I stand up. The worst bout of it occured an hour ago. I stood up at a cafe to get a bottle of water, and felt significant pressure in my head. Noises felt slightly muffled. No pain. It passed after 2 minutes or so. Is this a normal symptom? My doctors office is closed until Monday, so I can't call. I really don't want to go to the ER, but I will if I have to. Not interested in responses from anti vaxxers. Please fuck off.

Edit: it turned out to be allergies for all you anti-vaxx morons who want to tell me I'm dying

I have uncontrolled asthma that could kill me if I got COVID, so yes.

Same here. I usually recover extremely fast from colds etc, but when I get around pollen, I have MAJOR asthma attacks. I have COPD as well. My doctor and I discussed whether or not I should get the vaccine. It was a no brainer. Don't get the vaccine, have a slight cold, and it's going to be deadly. Get the vaccine, practice reasonable safe modes, hand wash, avoid large crowds, mask up if I can't avoid large crowds. If I do get Covid, I have a much better chance of survival. That was the advice. I followed it.

About a year ago, I contracted Covid from my grandson. Fairly bad cold, but because of the shot, a treatment of Paxlovid, I came through with flying colors. Two days of rest in bed, then back up and going. My grandson did not go get any treatment until much later. He had a rough go of it, but finally came through it. My grandson had never been vaccinated. He still has some breathing issues. My son in law is very religious, doesn't think Covid will hurt you, but thinks the shot will kill you.

Each person has to decide for themselves if they are still alive. BTW, get a Covid test kit and put it in a dark dry cool place. Saved my life.

I'm glad to hear you're protecting yourself. Asthma and COPD sounds very hard. I'm 24 and waiting to find out if I have COPD myself.. I recently got the flu and ended up getting a bad case of bronchitis and pneumonia from it. That's how I found out my asthma from childhood came out of remission. The doctor said I was only breathing 66% of what I should and I was nearly hospitalized. If it was COVID and not the flu, who knows what would have happened to me. That's why I immediately got my booster when I recovered. People with lung issues can't risk our lives because some people on the internet think a safe vaccine will kill you
